Will Power has won the first of two races at the Chevrolet Detroit Belle Isle Grand Prix, finishing 0.3308 of a second ahead of Graham Rahal on the bumpy, 13-turn, 2.36-mile street circuit. Power will get a shot to repeat his victory Sunday as part of IndyCar’s first of three doubleheaders this season.

■ Kyle Busch followed his dominant win Friday night in the Nascar Camping World Truck Series with another stellar run in the Buckle Up 200 in the Nationwide Series. Busch set himself up for a tripleheader sweep this weekend, and he will start behind the pole winner Brad Keselowski on Sunday in the Sprint Cup race.
